✦ Synopsis

Many methods have been described that bring about the controlled polymerization of acrylate monomers [1] including, for example, classical anionic techniques, [2] screened anionic polymerization (SAP), [3] group-transfer polymerization (GTP), [4] catalytic chain transfer (CCT), [5] reversible addition ± fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT), [6] atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), [7] TEMPO-mediated free radical polymerization (TEMPO 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinoxyl), [8] and coordination polymerization systems based on electrophilic metal centers such as samarium, [9] zirconium, [10] and aluminum.
